Charlie Chaplin‘s Burlesque on Carmen Scenes

& The Banquet.

      Two hundred and fifty covers were laid in Horticultural

Hall for the entertainment of the guests of the

Massachusetts exhibitors. The guest of honor was Governor

Walsh, and by his side wasClara Kimball Young,

who with the chief executive had led the grand march. During

the course of the speaking, a goodly part of which

contained complimentary reference to the governor, President

Kessel of the New York Motion Picture Corporation

casually remarked that next year he expected to be accompanied

by a delegation of players, as his firm was bringing

east six or eight companies, which would include Roscoe

Arbuckle and Mabel Normand, as well as Charlie

Chaplin, „who will be with us soon,“ said Mr. Kessel.

„To go with the Triangle-Keystone corporation“

Editorial content. „CHARLIE CHAPLIN IS

      NEW TRIANGLE STAR

      Charles Chaplin, who needs no particular introduction,

is reported to have served his connection with the

Essanay films to go with the Triangle-Keystone corporation,

beginning with the new year. It is alleged by

a perfectly good press agent that Mr. Chaplin, including

feet and mustache, is to receive $1,150 a week.

It is also said, reported, rumored or otherwise gossiped that

an advertising agency has a contract with the

comedian under which he receives cigarette money for

the use of his name on testimonials of various

sorts and kinds.“
